Antibiotics play a crucial role in the treatment of infectious diseases in both humans and animals. However, their extensive utilization has caused significant potential harm to both wildlife and humans. Enrofloxacin (ENR) is a common veterinary antibiotic, which is not approved for human use due to associated toxicities.

The complex was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and other various spectroscopic techniques. Besides, the optimized structure was determined through DFT calculations revealing that the coordination geometry of [Pd(L)(OH)Cl] complex is square planar.

In vitro anticancer activity towards different human cancer cells (HCT116, MDA-MB-231 and A549) was assessed using MTT assay. Among all derivatives, 4C- and 6C-spacer derivatives (7 e and 7 f) had the most potent growth inhibitory activities against HCT116 cells with IC values of 39.

A total of 96 weaned male rabbits were divided into 4 groups (24 rabbits/group). The first group received the basal diet without any supplementation and served as a control (MT0), while 2nd, 3rd and 4th groups supplemented with MT at levels of 5 (MT5), 10 (MT10) and 15 (MT15) g/kg diet, respectively, for 10 consecutive weeks.

Hence, the idea of sequential transfer on day 3 and day 5 was proposed. Objective: To compare the pregnancy outcomes of sequential embryo transfer on day 3 and day 5, versus cleavage transfer on day 3 and blastocyst transfer on day 5 in cases of recurrent implantation failure.

Objective: To develop and validate a reversed-phase (RP)-HPLC method for the simultaneous separation and quantification of a quaternary mixture of propyphenazone, flavoxate HCl, and their official impurities; phenazone and 3-methylflavone-8-carboxylic acid, respectively. Then utilize the validated method as an in vitro methodology to monitor the rate of release of the active ingredients from Cistalgan® tablets.
Objective: To detect whether amlodipine could increase pre-ovulatory follicular blood flow, thus enhancing ovulation and creating a better chance of conception in women with PCOS.
Methods: 165 women were screened of which 124 were qualified and women were equally randomized to 62 receiving clomiphene citrate and amlodipine and 62 receiving clomiphene citrate and placebo. The primary outcome was to detect if amlodipine can improve pre-ovulatory follicle blood flow studied by colour and power Doppler Pulsatility index of ovarian arteries, with drug administration.

Four simple, sensitive, accurate and precise spectrophotometric methods were developed for the simultaneous determination of a binary mixture containing Pantoprazole Sodium Sesquihydrate (PAN) and Itopride Hydrochloride (ITH). Method (A) is the derivative ratio method ((1)DD), method (B) is the mean centering of ratio spectra method (MCR), method (C) is the ratio difference method (RD) and method (D) is the isoabsorptive point coupled with third derivative method ((3)D). Linear correlation was obtained in range 8-44 μg/mL for PAN by the four proposed methods, 8-40 μg/mL for ITH by methods A, B and C and 10-40 μg/mL for ITH by method D.
